Ink the edges of these white cardstock pieces using red and brown ink (Distress Oxide- Fired Brick, Ground Espresso). Cut a piece of the green patterned paper to fit inside the frame. Cut a slightly smaller piece of the wood grain patterned paper. Adhere these rectangular pieces and the Majestic Frame pieces together. Adhere this to a kraft cardstock card base (5 x 7”). Add gems around the frame.

Stamp and die cut 1 full cardinal image and from another just die cut out the birds. All using dark brown ink (Stampin Up- Early Espresso) onto white cardstock. Ink the edges of the full oval image. Add color to the birds image using Zig Clean Color Markers and a water brush (Orange, Olive Green, Beige, Brown, Mid Brown, Grey Brown, Carmine Red).

Adhere the full image to the ornate oval frame you previously inked. Add the cardinals using foam squares. Adhere this whole piece to the card using foam tape. Add Stickles to the snow on the image and add gems to the oval frame.
